Is this prymnesium parvum?

[jamescam2009]

Does this look like prymnesium parvum? I haven’t have any negative effects my fish cuc and coral are completely fine. I’d just rather nip it in the bud before it becomes a serious problem. Any help at all will be massively appreciated.
Nitrate:18.7
P04: 0.02
Ps whatever it is under the microscope is x1000 zoom

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

I am not an expert, but I don't believe that you have P. parvum, I don't know of a lot (any?) instances of this organism growing in our tanks. From your pictures, I'd say you have a Dinoflagellate algae, which is very common in marine tanks, especially new ones.

Good luck!
